We've just launched a new travel money card with ZERO loading fees, ZERO ATM fees and ZERO exchange rate fees that we think will revolutionise the travel money industry...

The FairFX Anywhere Card is the latest addition to the FairFX family. Just as the name suggests, use it anywhere - in any country, in any currency and with any vendor displaying the MasterCard® acceptance mark!

It's essentially a FairFX Prepaid MasterCard® in Pounds Sterling, with funds being converted to the appropriate currency at the point of sale. Unlike some of our competitors, we don't mark up the underlying MasterCard® rate!

  • The standard card fee is £9.95 for initial loads under £500 but until 31st January 2010, the FairFX Anywhere Card will be absolutely free of charge.
  • A 1.5% charge is made on all usage, ATM or point of sale, using the FairFX Anywhere Card, in the UK, on the internet, or abroad - Anywhere! There is no additional ATM fee.

We're convinced that before too long the FairFX Anywhere Card will be at the top of all prepaid card and travel money comparison tables.
